I have so many e mails to answer. Anyone available for the position of PA? The pay isn't much but you can play with cloth at the same time. I will make you coffee, or tea but no cake I haven't got time. I may be able to find a couple of biscuits. Sound tempting? No takers? I promise, promise,promise I will set aside some time tomorrow to reply, to show that I do have manners, that I was raised correctly. Next thing you know my mum will be scolding me and confining me to my room.
I may not be very efficient at answering mail but I do spend time usefully, or is that pleasurably to satisfy my need for embroidery. I wouldn't put it down as frittering my time away but guess that a lot of people would. So I haven't been sitting with my feet up, drinking gin and watching daytime TV. My pouch is almost finished. The lining cloth is pressed and later today this will be put together, edges titivated and voila!! there will be a new pouch in my life. Not for me though it will be going in the shop with the pin pillows. (when they're ready. They have been tacked and titivated with tabs. They just need the sewing machine bit done so that tonight I can titivate those too. It will be titivation central round here at 8 pm!!) (don't come knocking because I won't be answering)
A new piece is taking shape too. For now there has merely been a frill added and half a seam embroidered. There will be more about this next week when I talk more about 'simply stitching', my new class.
